Our story
The house behind the Aseel
A family export house from Therhi, Khairpur — where the Aseel date has been grown for generations and graded like it matters. Because it does.
Balouch Foods International is a grower, processor and exporter of premium dates, headquartered in Therhi, Khairpur — the district at the heart of Sindh’s date belt, where roughly nine out of ten Pakistani Aseel dates are grown. We are one of the largest suppliers and exporters of Aseel dates in the country, and the fruit we ship carries our own name because it grows on our own palms.
Most exporters buy at auction and hope for the best. We took the longer road: our own orchards, our own processing and packing lines, and more than 5,000 tons of refrigerated storage. Controlling every link of that chain is what lets us promise things traders cannot — consistent grading from the first container to the twentieth, moisture held inside the 12–16% export window, and supply that doesn’t disappear three months after harvest.
What we make
One harvest, thirteen product lines: whole Aseel dates, four pitted grades (Select, GAQ, FAQ and Industrial), heritage varieties like Begum Jangi and traditional Yellow Dry dates, certified-organic fruit, and processed formats — paste, powder, diced dates and pressed blocks — for food manufacturers.
Who we serve
Importers, distributors, bakery and confectionery manufacturers, and private-label retailers in more than 32 countries across the Gulf, Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas. Some buy a pallet; most buy containers. All of them get the same paperwork-ready professionalism: Sedex, FDA registration, UKAS, Halal and FSSC 22000.
Quality and customer satisfaction have been our first priority since day one — not as a slogan, but because in the export business your next order is the only marketing that matters.
Our vision
To make Pakistani Aseel the date the world reorders — recognised in every serious market for consistent grading, honest specs and dependable supply.
Our mission
Control the whole chain — orchard, processing, cold store, container — so every buyer in every one of our 32+ markets gets the same fruit we would put on our own table, at a price that keeps their margin healthy.
